I’m Helen, the creative marketer behind The Creatives Desk.
Based in Bridgwater, I have over 10 years of experience in digital marketing and social media, having previously worked in various roles in e-commerce based businesses.
I’m someone who loves being creative and all things to do with creativity. So from quirky ideas, fun products, art, clever advertising, cute things, beautifully considered design, and brands with personality!
Over the years, I’ve learned that successful marketing isn’t about chasing vanity metrics or winning creative awards – it’s about delivering measurable results that genuinely support your bottom line.
Every strategy I develop and every piece of content I create is built with purpose: to attract the right audience, generate qualified leads, and turn them into loyal, long-term customers.
I founded The Creatives Desk in 2020, pivoting from a product-based business during the pandemic. Initially, I offered ad-hoc virtual assistant services.
However, I realised that there were so many businesses that struggled to afford to outsource design yet still need some design support. So in 2022, I pivoted the business again into providing pre-made graphic template kits.
Then, in late 2025, I took the business in a different (and yet exciting) new direction again and became a freelance digital marketing consultant.
Despite all the changes in my business, I remained passionate about helping small business owners with social media and marketing solutions.
Nowadays, my mission is to help busy business owners in the UK build sustainable and effective marketing strategies, empowering small business owners to stay visible and make a memorable impression.

"Absolutely AMAZING graphics for my small craft business. They are super easy plug and play templates that I can use over and over."
"There has been lots of thought gone into topics that people will engage with, not just selling posts. I think this is ideal for anyone looking for some quick and fresh content ideas to fill up their page with. Particularly if your busy! You could easily schedule all these in and then be out spending time doing things you'd rather be doing! Thanks Helen"
"The layouts make it really easy to turn text heavy content into bullet point graphics."
"I can’t wait to use these Pinterest graphics so I can create more beautiful pins, quicker and easier. It’ll save me time doing something I don’t particularly enjoy doing anyway, also with the knowledge that they’re going to look great!"
